M-Audio Sputnik Large-Diaphragm Tube Mic 2010s - Silver

Selling my M-Audio Sputnik microphone in the original case with the power supply, cables, shock mount and manual. I also still have the original box it came in. This was part of a home studio I built in 2008, and was only used once. It's an excellent microphone with superb clarity. The microphone has been safely stored in its case in my closet since 2012. I no longer have space or time for recording, so I'm selling all of my recording equipment. Product details: Equipped with a military-grade vacuum tube, Sputnik delivers an open, ultra-clean, and uncolored sound. This 6205M pentode tube is wired as a triode and features an inverted, socketless mount for improved audio integrity. Inside, the evaporated-gold diaphragm captures every detail. The head amp offers superior transient response and can be pushed to exhibit graceful overload characteristics. Three selectable polar patterns and a tuned brass backplate allow Sputnik to provide outstanding performance in any application. Tailor the response to match your needs using the switchable 10 dB pad and 80 Hz high-pass filter.
